Getting Certified


Sorry guys if you're following my fitness blog and hoping to read new stuff everyday. The thing is when I decided to open up this blog, I wanted to make it a regular thing to constantly post up fitness advice/tips or anything related ;), but 24 hours in a day is just not enough for me to sit down happily scratching my balls and write up a post.




Early this year, I decided to sign up for the ACE (American Council on Exercise) PT certification and I could say that it was one of the best experience in my life to be sitting in a room with people who share common lifestyle as I do.





In the first part, this course basically brief you through the code of ethics of a personal trainer in which greatly emphasize on the word "Rapport". Any personal trainer could explain the scientific theories or demonstrate a movement to their client but what separate them is the relationship formed when conducting the personal training session. Saying that, people could just search for workout routine splits online without the help of a personal trainer. So, one of the main focus of personal trainers is to form a bond with their client, motivate and guide them through their fitness journey.




I could briefly list out the Personal Trainer course outline so you guys will get a rough idea on what to expect if you decided to sign up. You will be introduce to the IFT model and various Exercise Techniques, Health Psychology, Initial Investigation and Physiological Assessment, Anatomy and Movement Fundametals, Functional Assessments, Nutrition and Weight management, Essential of Bioenergetics & Cardiorespiratory Anatomy, Cardiorespiratory training, Stability-Mobility Training, Movement Training, Load Training, Performance Training. ( purely based on my memory so I might missed out some O.o )

To be honest, if you wanna learn more about how your body move, utilize energy or respond to different forms of training, dont hesitate to visit FIT Malaysia and acquire about this course or just contact them here. The coaches and staff at FIT Malaysia just makes you feel at home and they will answer any questions or help you in any way they can.

I hesitated for over a year before taking up this course so stop giving yourself excuses in life and start stepping out of your comfort zone and explore all the possibilities.
